Ahead of Norway’s UEFA Nations League game against Austria on Wednesday (starting at 8:45 pm on the LIVE ticker), interim team boss Leif Gunnar Smerud is on top of the situation at Ernst Happel Stadium .
At the final press conference, the head coach of the U21 team said: “The Austrians are the big favorites, they have a lot of experience.” And yet there is speculation in the Scandinavian countryside with surprise, although the last few days have been quite turbulent.
“The Austrians are playing against a hungry team, we’ll see what happens. Everyone who plays for us will try to take their chance,” explains Smerud.
Remarkable “enthusiasm”
Genk’s professional, Mats Möller Dähli, will act as captain of the troop, which is mainly made up of legionaries. The 25-year-old, like his team manager, is confident: “We are outsiders, but we have a lot of exciting players with us. If we can organize them well, we’ll see how it goes.”
The “enthusiasm” can be felt within the team, says the midfielder. “You can tell that everyone really wants to play. Many have traveled from far away, which shows great motivation.”
Your team needs a win against Austria with at least two goals scored to finish the Nations League group in first place.
